THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING PALM-A-PALOOZA 2020!

Thank you for supporting our Palm-a-Palooza fundraiser on September 19, 2020 presented by Pacifica Resource Center and Grocery Outlet Pacifica.

Your generosity surpassed our expectations and helped raise over $40,000 for our important work!

In lieu of an in person event, PRC staff and board members delivered exclusive gifts to our sponsors on September 19. Then, over 175 of our supporters, friends, and family tuned in for a video premiere of never before seen content celebrating our past 5 years of events; Zoom interviews, including one with Chan and Diana Chu, owners of Grocery Outlet Pacifica; sponsor thank you’s; and, a drawing for prizes from some of our key community supporters. 

A very special thank you goes out to Living Room Plant Co. for putting together the beautiful palms and terrariums!

Kevin Burleigh of Kevin Burleigh Productions is credited with producing and editing our Palm-a-Palooza 2020 video while PRC Development Coordinator Robby Bancroft and Pacifica City Councilmember Mary Bier proudly handled hosting duties. And, our video concluded with an inspirational story from PRC Board President Chris Hunter, who also wants to remind you to complete your Census by September 30, 2020!

All funds raised through Palm-a-Palooza will help PRC continue to provide assistance to the growing number of Pacificans in need with groceries, emergency financial assistance for rent and mortgage, homeless services, and other critical services.

For example, nearly 1 in 10 Pacifica households earn under $25,000 and over half of Pacifica families earned less than $139,400 - the US Department of Housing's low-income threshold for a family of 4 (source: U.S. Census Bureau's 2014-2018 American Community Survey).

Thank you now and forever for supporting our vision to assure the basic needs of every Pacifican are met so that each member of our community has the opportunity to thrive. 

Together, we are Neighbors Helping Neighbors. Together, #WeArePRC!
